Wellington Water Suburb of the Week - Korokoro
Congratulations Korokoro! Our suburb of the week last week.
Well done to all the Korokoro-weanians? Korokoro-nites? Korokoro-stodians?
Whatever the name, they're an awesome bunch of #waterlovers, which is great to see as this summer is just starting to heat up.
We need to make sure we're looking after our water so it lasts all summer long!
Tell your family and friends who live up Korokoro that they're doing a great job.
One of our favourite tips is to collect water in a rainwater tank. This water is a great way to give your garden a bit of extra love when it's hot, and can be used after an earthquake as emergency water.
What tips will you be doing this week to help your suburb take the prestigious 'Suburb of the Week' title?

What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?
Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
